7 Of The Best Collaborations From Colette

ES/EN Colette, the concept store most famous of all, has announced that on December 20th it's going to close its doors. The house that has been a reference for the world of fashion, art and music for 20 years, has taken the desition as a result of the retirement of its founder, Colette Roussaux.
During this time, the store made several collaborations with brands, designers and creatives. Here are 7 of the best.

In 2014 people went a little crazy with the renew design of the classic Stan Smith, and since the Parisian house is always on trend, it was clear that it wasn't going to be out of it. Both of them collaborated on an exclusive collection with just 100 pairs, which generated a widespread demand. It consisted on white sneakers with dots and the replacement of the green heel with a blue one. Simple but effective.

In 2012 there was a collab where two models of New Balance were reinvented, the MT580 and 1500. The first one was made in red and blue with a touch of brown, while the latter one was a little more colourful with a combination of light blue, mustard, white and animal print.

For Fall 2015-2016 LV and Colette partnershiped to create a pop-up store with the men's collection, being that the first time the brand sold its clothes outside their shop. It was inspired by the "Harajuku" style, which included an exclusive limited edition of the "Twister" shoes. A guaranteed success.

Another luxury brand that opted for a pop-store was, no other than Chanel. The mythical Parisian house contrasted the streetwear with couture, modern with classic and elegance with edgy. Apart from tweed jacket, dresses with transparencies, white silk shirts and personalised accessories by the artist Kevin Lyons, another thing that caught out eyes was the decor. There were dolls characterised as its founder, blue bears with Chanel bags and even a food-truck from the patisserie Chez Bogato with cupcakes according to the theme.

For Barbie's 50th anniversary, in 2009, designers like Jeremy Scott presented real-size capsules collections for the doll and its boyfriend Ken. The store was filled with pink, sweets and makeup. Every Barbie Girl dream!
